Valentine’s Day is rapidly approaching, which means it’s time for another holiday filled with surprises and gift giving! If you’re anything like me, I’m already feeling financially drained from the holiday season; so the trick is finding something that will surprise your loved one and yet not break the bank. In the following blog we have highlighted a few of the more cost-effective electronics on the market in 2017. If you’re living on a tight budget take a look at these great options!
Amazon Fire HD 8 Tablet: This tablet is widely considered to be the best “bang for your buck” presently available for purchase. At a low price of $89.99, the Amazon Fire HD 8 offers 16GB of memory, which is a significant improvement from the 8GB presented in the previous model. In addition, the battery life is much improved from the previous model which boasts up to 12 hours of life as opposed to the 8 hours of battery life in the previous HD 8. While the screen resolution is not of the same quality as Apple’s most recent version of the iPad, it is of similar size and is substantially cheaper. This is definitely a great option for someone in need of a new tablet!
Nintendo 2DS: If your Valentine is more of a gamer, then look no further than the Nintendo 2DS! At only $79.99, the Nintendo 2DS might be a little dated (released in 2013), but offers a wide variety of downloadable games, including a free download code for Mario Kart 7! The biggest knock on the 2DS is that the device only contains one speaker, which amounts to the overall sound being a little less than 2017 quality. Ultimately, for the price, it doesn’t get much better than the Nintendo 2DS!
iHome Flask-Shaped Speaker: In recent years, one of the biggest trends in electronics has been a migration towards portable speakers, such as Amazon’s Alexa, the iHome, JBL, etc. Thus introducing a much cheaper option in the iHome Flask-Shaped Bluetooth Speaker! For only $40.00 you can have this Bluetooth-enabled portable speaker, which is fully-compatible with all the versions of the iPad, iPhone, and iPod. A little bonus addition is the bottle opening function included on the device, as well as the ability for the speaker to be easily attached to a backpack for easy transportation. All of these features make the iHome Flask-Shaped Speaker a great portable speaker option for users on the go!
Amazon Kindle: If your partner finds more of their enjoyment from reading, the Amazon Kindle is an excellent option! This e-reader was released in 2016, and presents a much thinner and lighter than its predecessor. The design is a bit more updated and has a much clearer screen than previous models as well. One of the newer additions to the latest models is the Bluetooth audio capability. This new feature allows for visually impaired readers to listen to audio as well! At only $74.95, the Amazon Kindle is a great option for avid readers!
